Projec Time begins

So it's come time for final project to start. I'm actually really excited about what I'm going to be able to do, but I'm not going to lie, I don't exactly know how I'm going to do it. I was debating between two different projects,. One was going to be the human right youth network, which is a network of youth groups through out Thailand and Myanmar that was started this semester through the efforts of a group of us students. I've been involved in this project for a bit, but don't really feel a deep connection to it. Ultimately I decided on Na Nong Bong, the village where my heart lies.

I'm actually really excited to be going back to Na Nong Bong and to be able to finally do something that will help the community. The project should be interesting because the group that We have for the project is interesting. After some deliberation, We decided to do a media project that we can transfer on to the villagers to raise awareness of the issue that is happening to the their village and the surrounding area. We decided that we're going to make a short video outlining the human rights violations that are occurring and match them with the faces of people that are affected. For instance one of the main rights being violate in the village is the right to water. WE plan on interviewing a person's who's right to water has been severely affected and hopefully illicit a emotional response out of those that the video is being presented too. The most important part of the project is the sustainability aspect of it. The protect has to be sustainable and thus has to be able to be used by the villagers. We shall see how this turns out...
